A diffuser in a jet engine is designed to decrease the kinetic energy of the air entering the engine compressor without any work of heat interactions. Calculate the velocity at the exit of a diffuser when air at 100 kPa and 30°C enters it with a velocity of 350 m/s and the exit state is 200 kPa and 90°C. For calculation, assume the specific heat is constant at the average temperature of the inlet and the exit.

Explanation:

Given ;  P1 = 100 kPa, T1 = 30°C, T2 = 90°C, P2 = 200 kPa, V1 = 350 m/s

From energy conservation at inlet and outlet

h1 + (1/2)v1² = h2 + (1/2)v2²

CpT1 + (1/2)v1² = CpT2 + (1/2)v2²

.718(90-30) x 103= 0.5x (350²-v2²)

velocity at the exit of a diffuser ;  V2=190.63m/s

neither accurate nor precise.

r = ρ x length / area  

ρ = r x area / length  

ρ is in ohm-meters  

in basic units, it is m³kg/s³a²  

i think this is it.
